Awarded to full-time or part-time graduate students in the Masters or Doctoral program in
Library and Information Science who demonstrate financial need, to enable them to attend
conferences, workshops or field trips or to cover travel expenses and fees associated with a co-op
placement. A faculty committee, appointed by the Dean of the Faculty of Information & Media
Studies, will select the recipients. One recipient will be selected per term. If there are no worthy
candidates in the current term, multiple bursaries can be awarded in the following term.
Applications are available in the Dean's Office of the Faculty of Information & Media Studies and
must be submitted 30 days prior to the end of the term in which the bursary is sought. These
bursaries were established through Foundation Western by Stanley & Nadine Beacock

Awarded annually to a graduate student who is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident enrolled
full-time in an approved graduate program who is engaged in Science or Technology research in
the Biological and Life Sciences area with preference to a student conducting research in
Psychology (MRC/NSERC supported areas only). The scholarship is based on overall academic
excellence. To be eligible, students must have maintained a minimum A- (80%) average in each of
the last two years of study at the post secondary level. In addition, applicants will be evaluated on
research ability or potential, communication skills, and interpersonal and leadership abilities.
These latter will be assessed by a research proposal written by the student, demonstrated research
productivity, thesis advisor's assessment, faculty reference letters specifically requested for this
purpose, and the graduate program's assessment of the candidate. Students must also meet the
criteria set by the Faculty of Graduate Studies to fit the OGSST guidelines. Final selection will be
made by the Faculty of Graduate Studies Awards Committee. This scholarship was made possible
by a generous donation from Marjorie Miller.

Students must apply for this scholarship. Application forms are available from eligible Graduate
Program Offices or the Faculty of Graduate Studies. Complete applications are to be submitted to
the Faculty of Graduate Studies by Graduate Programs no later than April 1.

Value: 1 at $15,000 for one year only - Effective May 1999-April 2000

These funds will qualify for a 2:1 match under the Ontario Graduate Scholarships in Science and
Technology (OGSST) Program.
